Abstract excerpt
Patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus frequently have been associated with elevation in plasma levels of PAI-1. Part of the variations in individual plasma PAI-1 levels have been attributed to variations in the PAI-1 gene. In order to determine whether insulin regulates PAI-1 expression in a genotype-specific manner, individual human umbilical vein ECs (HUVECs) were genotyped using a Hind III RFLP...
